I won't be posting every treasury I make on my blog here--promise. But this one, my second, turned out so great (not bragging, it's the content, not me) I just have to share it here. See what you think:

I keep watching everyone make the most gorgeous treasuries on Etsy and I've always wanted to try it but I thought it would be really hard. I remember when I first started on Etsy a couple of years ago how hard it was to even get a treasury on once it was made, but I finally decided to try one today. It was about the most fun I've had in a long time, and it was very easy once I figured out what I was doing.

I chose a Polka Dot theme but as I was going through the polka dot listings I found I was drawn to the red, black and white ones and that's what I concentrated on. It took about an hour to put it together, and then, just as I was about to save it, I somehow lost the entire page! Aaaaagh!

So I started all over again, remembering some I had done, but finding other, new ones I actually liked even better. When I finally hit the "save" button, I thought it was going to take me to a holding place, but lo and behold--my treasury was up!

Soooo. . . . now that I've done one of them I'm going to be wanting to do more. (This treasury included several pieces from the Etsy Vintage Team. I think I'll do my next one to include pieces from Vintage Village. Not surprisingly two of my favorite places.)

Welcome, Vintage lovers:

I've been mad about vintage for over 50 years, and have been collecting since I was a little girl. My true love is American pottery and china, but if I had to make a choice after that, I would have to say "everything". After that it would be "anything". Antique shops, thrift shops, estate sales, garage sales. . . you open it and I will come. (And to that I now have to add "online stores".) Can't get enough of that wonderful stuff!
